Hi all

My husband was diagnosed with MM in September 2021. It’s been a roller coaster so far but he’s having weekly chemo injection plus thalidomide and steroids. 

I’m just in shock I think and honestly don’t know what to expect. His oncologist is quite positive and is talking about SCT and maybe radiation to follow.

It sounds as though he will really go through it for the next 12 months and it really scares me as to how we’re going to cope .

  • Hi , welcome to this corner of the community.

    I am just dropping in past to highlight our dedicated Stem cell transplant support group where you can connect with others who have navigated the SCT journey both as a patient and carer. I don’t have Myeloma but have had two Allo (donor) SCTs for my rare type of NHL, now into my 5th year in remission and doing great.
